A TRIAD OF CARTOONING

We have a confession to make: we like to draw stuff. But even more, we love exploring. Whether bringing to life an Albino Skerlax with a fresh pen or watching a ravenous Kragodile emerge from washes of ink, we often find ourselves running through the woods stirring up bizarre adventures. So when the planet rung in the new year, we had our sights set on collecting our newest pursuits behind the art table. And before we knew it, one book became three. So scroll forward brave traveler, mysterious journeys await in the pixels below.

BOOK ONE

SHRED: Volume 3

With over 170 designs, SHRED: Volume 3 wrangles our most diverse exploration of the galaxy and beyond. Gathering hidden excerpts from our personal sketchbooks, two years of Inktober, and over 50 new characters, SHRED represents an intimate look into our thought process. And did we mention there are plenty of Dad jokes?

And for anyone interested in original art, be sure to check out the ultimate (extremely limited) Special Edition which includes a one of a kind, randomly selected illustration.

BOOK TWO

Morton: The Bad Luck Bot

Some Bots just can’t catch a break. Between stress in the workplace, dysfunctional technology, and hidden monsters in the dark, the universe can be a bit harsh sometimes. But sometimes a “can-do” attitude (or simply being oblivious) can make all the difference. In our second new book for 2018, join Morton as he navigates over 60 of life’s pitfalls with an endless destructive curiosity.
It just might be the best day he’s ever had.

BOOK THREE

Fanboys

As kids of the 80’s, we found ourselves raised adventurously by adoptive parents in the form of Optimus, Mario and a few flavors of ninja. The battle of Good vs. Evil, 30-minute toy commercials, and the promise of new adventure (just after the break) served as cornerstones to our young creative life. We were cut deep by the fading blue eyes in Transformers: The Movie, but only because we truly cared for these larger than life characters.

Those days ignited a passion for comics and cartooning that keeps this crazy train moving. So, for the first time, we’ve collected over 100 highlights of our fanart from the last 10 years and brought them to the page. Let’s raise a glass to our favorite heroes (and villains), old (and new). Just after the break.

BACK IN PRINT

SHRED: Volume 2

Did you see that? No, that wasn’t a meteor striking the earth. That was SHRED: Volume 2 blazing back to life in an explosion of paper and ink. Sold out for over a year, we had a unique opportunity to bring this raucous crowd of creatures back into physical realm with a limited print run. So if you missed out, Volume 2 is the perfect companion to the 2018 collection.

TOOLS OF THE TRADE

Hang out with us behind the drawing table and see how these monsters and robots were created. We’ll share our design approach across 6 diverse creations as we explain our traditional materials and techniques. Topics include attacking value with pencil, color harmony with markers, and fighting the whispers to add “a little more white” to toned paper.

JOIN THE BATTLE. BE A HERO.

10 YEARS AND COUNTING

All told, these four books tally to over 250 pages and chronicle 1460 days of exploration.

That’s a considerable stretch of highway, dirt roads, obstacle courses, and a few trips to grandma’s house in the woods for good measure. Your support over the years has made all this possible and we couldn’t be more excited to share our latest chapter.
